Welcome

The Northants Branch of the Motor Neurone Disease Association
has the sole aim of serving all those in the area who are affected by Motor
Neurone Disease (MND). This includes people with MND, their carers, family
and friends, in fact anyone who has been touched in some way by the
disease.

Our branch holds regular support meetings for people living with MND
and their carers. These provide an opportunity to meet with other people
living with the disease, and to share experiences and ideas.

Fundraising and raising awareness are also an important part of branch
activities. We organise a number of events throughout the year which are
well supported. Additionally we are very fortunate to be assisted by a
number of individuals and organisations within the region. They raise
money for use by the branch to help people living with MND or to help fund
research into MND to learn more about the disease and help to find
treatments. Every event helps spread the word about MND and raise people's
understanding of what it means to live with MND.

The Northants Branch is run entirely by volunteers, many of who have
personal experience of the disease. We are always interested in hearing
from people who can help with events or who want to get involved with
running the branch.

If you would like further information about our meetings, would like to
receive a hard copy of our newsletter, or wish to
get involved with our branch, please contact Kate Inchley.
